I have a B18B -T in my 88. Its fun, for now. I haven't got the chance to crank up the boost yet. So I don't know how much fun.
Getting it to all fit is another story....

Thanks for the responses. How much torque and HP are you guys pulling. Is ti really difficult to fit everything in there?

Also, what are your mods/parts?

Thanks

I just got mine + my block is fudged right now so I don't know what I am pulling. Feels fast on the butt dyno...

I was going to attempt it myself, but after looking at all the hacking and cutting that was done to my car I am glad I didn't. Mostly it depends on what parts you get and how you plumb it.

I did pretty much everything to my motor. I kept the stock injectors, ignition, spark plugs and cam gears for now. I am only running 6psi, for now.

B18Bs are very torquey, smooth power and easy to put in a crx.
